After the announcement made by Mukesh Ambani, to extend free offer till 31 march 2017, rival telecom operators are stepping in the price war game by coming with new plans to lure customers. Yesterday Vodafone came up with "Bada Data chota price" plan.The latest addition is BSNL which announced an unlimited 3g data plan for all prepaid users across India.

The new plan 'STV 498' OFFERS unlimited 3Gdata with no data limit and comes with a validity of 14 days. More over, there is no Fair Usage policy (FUP) limit and hence no restriction on data speeds. According to reports, the new offer will be available as promotional offer until January 2017 in all telecom circles.

Both the existing users and new users of BSNL are eligible for this offer, according to BSNL's R.K Mittal - Director (Consumer Mobility).BSNL is now offering double data volume for its four data plans with out any hike in thePrice tag.

Earlier BSNL launched 3G data pack 1099 with a validity of 30 days on 25th August 2016.It was welcomed with tremendous response from customers as there is no Fair Usage policy (FUP) for this plan and many believed it is 'worth every penny'.So the users can enjoy unlimited 3g data with no limits on speed or usage. At present, no telecom operator is providing unlimited data packs to its customers. This is where BSNL holds the edge over the rival telecom operators.
